War Hero

Having had time to contemplate, and a lot more cider:
Goodbye to Love - The Carpenters (who was the guitar soloist ? Must be one of the best ever.)
Hotel California - The Eagles - again, a guitar classic.
Light my fire - Jose Feliciano - ditto.
Apache - The Shadows - tune from a very misspent youth, in tents along Whitsand Bay on a Friday/Sat night.
Hey Jude - The Beatles - one of the best singalongs ever - even me mum sung this one !
Album ? Never lost my fascination with Mike Oldfield, from Tubular Bells to Tubular Bells II at Edinburgh Castle - missed III at Horse Guards because dumb female forgot to buy tickets, and it hoyed down with rain.

Lantern Swinger

This is a bit of a problem for me, because I've got tons of music I listen to.

I've probably forgotten a load of tracks but right now my five favourite are.

1) Biffy Clyro - Many of Horror (Before that whiny X Factor prick went and gayed it up)
2) Placebo - The Bitter End (MrsHarris has really got me into them
3) AC/DC - Thunderstruck (Always been a favourite since I was about three. Stomping around a bar in Dunkirk with an oppo makes it an awesome song! )
4) Foo Fighters - Everlong (Hard one to pick, I could've picked any of their songs!)
5) Pendulum - Showdown (Absolutely brilliant song, one that makes you press that accelerator a bit further...)

As for best album? Biffy Clyro's Only Revolutions. Cracking album I can't recommend enough. Buy it now. NOW!

War Hero

Been a while since any artist made me sit up but I'm blown away by the voice of Josh Groban.He sang the backing in the Movie Troy,wonderful voice and you can catch it on U-Tube.
I went to buy his song book/CD, only to find he was singing that atrocious "You Raise me Up" I expect even Max Bygraves recorded that!
Wonderful artist and voice.
